with the conversion on your mates 4motion does the 20v lump bolt to the 4wd runnin gear or is there alot of work involved? ive been thinkin about this for a while as id not seen it before til now

yes because the s3 is 4wd too, the s3 gear and transfer box fit, some pipes need to be fabricated though, exhaust and boost pipes.


So it wasnt the 4motion runnin gear you used, hmmmm sounds expensive!!

Get gearbox with the s3 lump dont you ;)

and then you still have a 4motion engine and gearbox (same as r32) to sell and make money back, the reason you cant use the 4mo box is because the holes dont line up on the gearbox to engine
right i see, thats what i was unsure about, was all set for buyin a 4motion for a conversion fest then!

watch the sump ask guy he went over a some toilet paper and it carcked!!!! :laugh: :laugh:

From what I can remember there wasn't that much stuff; I can remember the gearbox being a pain in the butt though. Il try find out. That car was the absolute nuts though I wanted it

Awesome work Ashmond lots of hard work gone in to the conversions!  :cool:

Like Ashmond said the 1.8t engine goes in pretty easy because of being able to interchange parts from the Audi quattros. You would just need a downpipe to fit from the turbo to before the ca and the rest of your exhaust system.

Have a look at this build big power golf quattro
